Restaurants Townsville – Yongala Lodge

This historic venue continues to grow in stature as one of  Townsville’s most enjoyable restaurants.  The romance and adventure of the building is consistently matched by the very high quality of the food and the friendly professionalism of the staff.  I always enjoy eating there – and I am happy to suggest you make your booking and see what I mean.

The new menu is an extension of the last – and keeps just reading it is turning on my tastebuds!  It is great to see the Gluten Free and Vegan dishes on the increase, and the Banquet is amazing value if you have a group of 4 or more – or you are planning a function.

Restaurants Townsville – Menu Update Yongala Lodge

Each time Townsville Restaurants make a great change to their menus – we are happy to feature it – and then come in for a review meal.    I welcome Townsville restaurants to forward their Menus to reviews@restaurantstownsville.com.au.  We focus on being completely fair, and eat anonymously.  We like it when you do well  - and if the dining experience goes to heck we now hold off on the review and give you another go.

Previous Review By Restaurants Townsville

Ok – The Yongala Lodge Townsville Restaurant has previously been reviewed – and we were very happy to give them great scores.  Now we have their new Menu, which reads extremely well – and we will be visiting them in the next week or so.

There is still a classic Greek flavour to many of the dishes – which makes sense seeing Head Chef Rob trained in this style.  Judging by the menu – I think our little group of dinner reviewers will be tasting off each others plates.

Standby for more reviews.
